Title: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Cementitious Systems
This talk explores how artificial intelligence and machine learning are transforming cementitious systems across the materials discovery-to-manufacturing pipeline. Beginning with foundational AI concepts, the presentation covers three key applications: information extraction from scientific literature using language models, AI-driven property prediction models in cementitious systems, and practical implementation of AI in cement plants for process optimization and clinker phase prediction. The discussion highlights how these technologies enable rapid screening of sustainable formulations, reduce experimental requirements, and improve operational efficiency while addressing challenges in data quality and system integration for next-generation cement manufacturing.
